Residential sub-contractors get failing grade in recent report from Work Safe Saskatchewan
Home buyers beware.
A report by Work Safe Saskatchewan released last week has raised the concern of home builders and contractors around the province.
According to the report, less than half of workers observed by Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) inspections used required safety precautions on residential construction sites across Saskatchewan in 2015.
This includes only 48 per cent of all workers wearing approved protective head gear on site, 41 per cent of sites using proper fall protection and 50 per cent of all workers trained in required fall protection plans.
